Removing Recursion

[Terry Reedy]

About two months ago I and others posted several algorithms for for n
items distributed among k bins.  In those, bin size was constrained by
need to put one in each bin and to fill from large to small.  I
believe calculation of max in bin could be augmented by your other
constraint, while '1 in each' constraint could be omitted (or else
rerun algorithm for different values of k).
